MODEL RAILROAD SYSTEM VERSION 2.1.16 RELEASED
Deepwoods Software is pleased to announce the release of version 2.1.16
of the Model Railroad System. This package includes a collection of
libraries and programs designed to help the modeler with many of the
more tedious aspects of his or her hobby. Included are libraries for
communication with Chubb and Lenz XPressNet networks, a user-mode
driver for the Rail Driver control console, a library to parse XTrkCAD
layout files, as well as utilities for computing dropping resistors,
camera view areas, creating railroad time tables, and a switch-list
based freight car forwarder system. This is a maintaince release that fixes
a cross-build problem.
- Two new programs:
Dispatcher, a Dispatcher Control Panel Builder. It can also
load XTrkCAD layout files and draw a graph network of the
layout, which should be useful (?) in creating dispatcher
control panels. This is an alpha release. No Documentation
yet.
Screen shots available:
, .
ModelRRSystem, an experimental launcher with simple window
manager features. This is an alpha and experimental release.
No Documentation yet.
- Minor parser fixes to handle minor changes in XTrkCAD layout files.
- Fixed a pile of problems with the build process. The system now will
build in a subdirectory. This it is possible to build for multiple
targets from a single source tree. Yeah!
In addition to the source code archive, there is also available for
download a Linux binary archive and MS-Windows binary archive. Both sets of
binaries were built under CentOS 4.6. The Linux binaries are
distribution neutral, due to the use of StarPack technology.
